Yes. Sorry, but I had so many bad experiences with maintainers.

Well, I can't comment on your experience for the simple reason that I
haven't followed those discussions. In their defence, though, you have
to know that those people get to review your code, apply it and then
deal with it long after you've gone on about doing other things.

So, even if you don't always agree with them, you need to realize that
those are the people responsible for that code and if they request a
reasonable change in your submission, you have to do it. It is that
simple.

Totally wrong. I'm free to just stop discussion. That's the difference between the old type of os communites and corporates where people do what they've got instructed from above without discussion. I offered something and wasn't paid to do something.

It was worth a try but I don't have to build a framework to achieve something simple just because a maintainer requests it.

[ Unless you have a good argument against it but that's a different
story and this is what is called the "review" process. ]

I want to see the mentionend information and want that it is seen and do not want to hide it away deep in the sysfs where it actually must be searched.
